The sun has been shining there, although some high cloud cover is currently building up, and there’s the possibility of a shower later.

In between, Andrew Nixon of Beyond the Boundry thinks, “The USA are a better side than Nepal, of that there is no doubt. But this is a dead rubber match, so anything can happen, especially if Alam and Das bowl well.”
